For all the kind words, thanks. I'd like to learn how to use that MUSABC, or whatever, but I suspect that one may have to read music to do it, and I don't.
There are so many great chorus songs it's hard to know where to start. I think of all the glorious hymns on Sharon Mountain Harmony, our (cassette only, I'm sorry to say) recording of Lucy Simpson, Rock Creek, Wally Macnow, and the Amidons. And there are many other fine collections of hymns available. For those of us with only one navel, I recall Helen Bonchek Schneyer saying "I think of them as love songs." Then I think of all the songs Joe Hickerson leads on each of his three Folk-Legacy cassettes. I think of Ed Trickett's solo recordings, too, as well as those he shared with Ann Mayo Muir and Gordon Bok.
I'll have to go back abd check which recording includes "The Horn of the Hunter," Barbara. Not tonight, though. I'm too lazy to go downstairs. What about that gem from The Real Bahamas, "And I Bid You Goodnight." One of the finest chorus songs extant! More on this thread later.
